FIELD OF VIEW 

by ~ ' 

John.Edgar Hoover, Director 
Federal Bureau of Investigation 
United States Department of Justice 

Almost every citizen's impression of the 
Federal Bureau of Investigation varies according to his. 
knowledge, or lack of knowledge, of this agency of the Federal 
government. The Jack of knowledge, is often a. source of con«^ 
cern. The Concern stems from the fact that, in many instances, 
distorted and often wholly false impressions float across the 
.consciousness, and, if the field of view is not already broadened 
by factual knowledge, such impressions color the individual, attitude. 

Perhaps the most common misconceptions Relative 
to the FBI have to do with its size, its jurisdiction, and the wholly 
erroneous impression thai it issues "clearances. "

The FBI issues no clearances. The misunderstanding 
with regard to this point unquestionably stems from the fact that, the 
FBI, in accordance with presidential directives, instructions from 
the Attorney General, and various Federal laws; is charged with 
conducting; specific types- of investigations- concerning certain 
applicants* appointees and employees of agencies of the Executive, 
Branch of the Government. The purpose of these inquiries is to 
determine facts about an individual on which, appropriate officials; of 
the interested agency can make a sound judgment as to whether or not 
that person warrants the trust placed in him as 1 a public servant. All 
facts ascertained by the FBI in connection with such inquiries, 
Whether good or bad, are turned over to appropriate officials in the 
interested agency. The FBJ gives no ''clearance.." It does not express 
an opinion regarding the suitability of persons for Government employ- 
ment, Hor does it make recommendations with respect to hiring, firing , 
or retaining employees of other Federal agencies. The officials of such 
agencies are wholly responsible lor decisions made. 

What, about the FBI's jurisdiction? 

We. conduct investigations in over 165 different 
elasslf ications. These encompass both, general investigations and 



-2- 



^ 



* 

domestic intelligence operations. Such jurisdiction is derived 
from Congressional enactments, Executive Orders, and rulings of " 
the. Attorney General* It is strictly limited, yet seemingly great 
numbers of people are unaware of this fact. Indeed, we recdlve 
thousands of requests to investigate matters which are not within 
our jurisdicti&ij Jh instance after instance, we have difficulty in - . 
convincing those making the': requests v that we can take no action in 
, areas in which we, do riot have such jurisdiction and that We can act 
only in instaittces in which .FBI jurisdiction is specific and defined., 
The FBI is a fact-^therihg arid fact-reporting agency— an investigative 
agency, as the name indicatesi And* as I indicated earlier} tit neither 
evaluates the results- of its investigations nor makes prosecutive 
recommendations. 

Some> citizens, of course, are unaware that the FBI, is 
.the investigative arm of qnly one sectiqn of the Executive Branch of 
96verriment-.-?the United States Department of Justice^-and that respon- 
sibility relative to income tax violations , narcotics; guarding the 
President, and a host of other matters, rests with agencies other than 
the FBI* _ 

The FBJVs role is well known with regard to* .breaches 
oflaw which are highly publicized, such as kidnapirigs or violations 

- 3 - 



<h 




of the Federal bank, robbery statute— and here I might add that in 
the .fiscal year 1902 there were 893 robberies^ 303 burglaries 2nd 
1^3 larcenies of banks* credit unions, and sayings and loan assocla- 
tions~~but lew are. aWareofcthe many other responsibilities devolving 
upon our organization. For example, &eFI^is chatfpdwl&the 
duty of investigating alleged violations of the rights and privileges, 
guaranteed to an individual by the Constitution of the United States . 

Some idea of the size of our investigative responsibilities 
under the civil rights statutes, may be< gained ftfom the fact that 2, 08$ 
alleged violatitons 1 of civil rights were reported to the FP? during, the 
fiscal year .1962 as; compared to 1> 813 for the preceding y^ar* . - 

Recent new legislation,, including new laws bolstering 
the Government's' drive on. organized crime,; nas, further extended FBI 
jurisdiction and added to the mountiug workload. 

That the yearly work load is substantial may be judged 
from the feet that convictioiisiin .FBI cases totaled $2, 635 in the 1962 
fiscal year, and fines, savings and. recoveries rose to an all-time 
Mgh of $174, 5§I, 341--&sum wblch, represents a return: of $1. 37, for. 
. every dollar appropriated for the FBI in the year ending June 30, 1962. 
During the same period, 11 v 103 fugitives were located;

Tact? such, as the preceding ones tend to make some, 
people think 61 the Federal Bureau of Investigation as an agency "wjiich " 
awst be massive in size. The contrary is true* As of the end 6f the* 
fiscal year 196fc, the total complement of FBI employees *was .5, 967 
Special Agents and 8, 057 clerical employees,. This group of slightly 
more than fourteen thousand men and vrtunen man fifty-fiye field offices 
in the United States and Puerto Rico, and staff FBI Headquarters in 
"Walshingtoil, D, C, In addition to investigative -work* this group also 
discharges the tstsks involved ^with relation to cooperative functions, 
designed to }re .of assistance fo locals county and state, law enforcement 
agencies;, and to other agencies oithe Federal dovernmenti 

Forexample^ during the fiscal year just: past, 13,. 529 
agencies Contributed a steady stream of fingerprints to .our .central 
repository* pur Identification division, received an average of more 
than 23,000 fingerprint cards for processing each working day. 
Similarly* the FBI Laboratory, in the course: of tee fiscal yoar 1962, 
received 191, 253 specimens of evidence requiring 231, 486 scientific 
examinations* In the same period, the FBI, upon request, participated 
in 3, 666 local and regional police training schools, attended by 101*865 
officers, The FBI. also disseminated 'well oyer 100, OOOitenis of criminal

Intelligence Information, including data received from its confidential 
informants,, to other law enforcement agencies during tlie 1962 Jiscal 

year, 

This, v&ry matte*! of cppperatien sometimes leads to 
contusion on the part of the uninformed* *fche FBI is enabled to discharge 
its responsibilities to the American people only because the good ; 

, citizens— the vast majority of Americans—cooperate fully and 
generously with us* They afford us information -which often proves 

A vital to our work* aS.dp qthers -who may not always J*ave a savory 
background* But however much assistance the private citizen renders,, 
he does not becomean Agent of the FBI. 

The term Special Agent of the Fgt" is applied only 
to the ajpprojdmateiy six thousand full-time male einptoyees pfc the 
Federal Bureau of investigation "who have met rigid requirements 
relatmgtp education^ character and physical condition. For oxampXe, 
the form given t6 applicants for the pqsitipn of Special Agent in the 
federal Bureau :oHnvestigatipn includes the following with regard to 
education and expsriencet . *■ 

Applicants must bei 

(a) graduates from state-accredited resident 

law schools* 

N6t§t Graduates pi law schools must have 
- successfcilly completed graduate

is one requiring personal attendance.

;{b) Graduates froia a resident four-year 
college -with a major in accounting 
-witi;at least three years of practical * 
accounting and/or auditing experience. 

There are, of. course, technical positions (laboratory* 
identification, electronics -, clerical and. clerical technical), in the 
FH filled by men* 'who are not Special Agents. Andj 4thougha 
wbman cannot be an actual "FBI Special Agent," approximately 
5*000 of them do the. bulk pf the teichnical and clerical woylc -which 
helps catch criminals* For those who in the futurer may be interested, 
full, details astoihe various positions may be secured fey writing

It -is our hope that you will seek to learn more about 
our organization, for "we have fduhd. that as correct ^information relative, 
to F£I jurisdiction and functions becomes -widespread, our task is 
simplified. A clear field of/viejron the part of the individual, citizen

has now advised me by letter as follows : 



,r We would be very happy to have an article 
prepared by Mr. Hoover in the News Record * In 
fact, after thinking about this for several days, 
I have decided to make this a special issue which 
would have three or four pages devoted to 
Communism on both the international and domestic 
levels. I understand that the University of 
Cincinnati has an excellent Russian Studies 
Program and, this, plus help from other depart- 
ments on campus,, would provide an interesting 
as well as informative issue. 

"Mr. Hoover's article, if he is going to 
write it exclusively for the News Record , would 
be used as the lead article for the issue. On 
the other hand, if the article is not written 
especially for the News Record , we would have to 
know the subject in order to incorporate it into 
the proper place. Naturally, the former would be 
preferable to us.

lis interested in having the topic of Communism 

covered as much as possible including how, when, where it 
operates, its goals, its victims, its successes, its failures, 
and how to recognize it. He states he cannot guarantee an 
absence of criticism if published because there are all kinds of 
students on the campus from those of the ultra-right to those 
of the ultra-left, and he speculates that somebody will have

Even so, it is my experience that the University of 
Cincinnati is a relatively reliable and conservative group 
compared with many other universities. Our relationship with

article relatin g to Communism, this would fit in with the current

make mention of the Director's new book which will be released

I received the information you sent me through the Cin-

I do not know if Mr. Mason of the Cincinnati office in- 
formed you of our intentions but we plan to publish a four or 
five page spread on communism some time in late November or 
early December. This special will deal with every facet of 
communism we feel we have the knowledge and ability to cover— 
'historically, idealological, internationally, and domestic. 

Communism to me has long been a source of confusion and 
with this spread we hope to clarify and classify these points 
of confusion which has been a stumbling block to studeSbs wh<£? 
are not associated with communism courses, and study, o -^

Although the spread is still in the early planning stages 
I would, like to thank you and Mr. Mason for the assispbce you 
have given me. Mr. Mason has given me a library of printed io 
material and cleared up much of my own confusion so th'at, nowzs 
I have very definite objectives in mind concerning the^organ^"

admitted to the University when vacancies did hot exist; reduced

As if you didn't have your hands sufficiently full right now, we need 
some help — and "we 11 are a group of relatively responsible businessmen 
in Cincinnati. Here is our problem — hopefully you might give us some 
advice — possibly you might even have a pamphlet already in print which 
your department could distribute to us. 

a 

As you know, the University of Cincinnati » a 20,000 student institution 
is closed I A group of 35 militants (several non-students) sat on the 
floor in the Administration Building and eventually caused the University 
Senate to express concern that the entire campus was in danger. 

Whether this is the real reason or not is of little concern at this 
point — hindsight is usually 20-20! What- concerns us most right now is 
the future. 

Obviously if there is to be a future in this University of Cincinnati, 
there needs to be some return to responsibility for the 60 to 85% of the 
campus which is presently "non-aligned". This fluid mass which is 
actually a majority on most campuses is quite upset by the militants and 
extremists, but they don't do anything. 

At this point I feel that these people would no longer remain silent. if 
there was some activity with a constructive purpose, with which they 
could ally themselves. If there were some responsible voice on campus. 

Tie these two things together, and it looks like there might be a 
possibility of a "University of Cincinnati Student Herald" similar to 
the Badger Student Herald at the University of Wisconsin. I presume 
that that paper is trying to be an active voice. 

Secondly, industry here iLri Cincinnati (at least the industry leaders with 
whom we are talking) is chomping at the bit to support a move to, 
responsibility — they're chomping at*the bit to help support some , decent /„ ^y 
and responsible campus leadership. REC-llQf <^X j ^ l/sT^T* -»/ U 5 

This is the framework q$E, campus--lilcewfse there are quite a few Sigma 
Chi undergraduates who I think wouid lead, if given some guidelines and 
some advice on $hat is working elsewhere.

were- at least one dqzen^users, .and maybe a pusher." I know lean 
learn. nibre about who is- pushing the drugs. Lean/be of value to the

yeaas of age. I am v about to enter r my seeona .year Si th e University

- This pas,t wihter\while attending school I worked part

that this is. not exactly what I want to do for the rest of my lfcfe. 
The past month or so I have been thinking of law enforcement and the 
Federal Bureau of Investigation in particular. 

I have been reading a little about the Bureau, but would 
like additional information regarding the requirements, for becoming 
an agent. It wopd be ^reatLy appreciatedif you could send me any 
information that would be helpful to a future applicant of the Federal 
Bureau of Investigation. One question that I- would' like answered is 
if I co-op while going to school will the time I work while co-oping 
count, in the years I need for work experience before you consider 
an applicant.

jDr. BENNIS, newly appointed President of the University 
J of Cincinnati^ Matters of general interest* were dis- ? 
cussed With Dr # BENNIS, including Bureau ^s Responsibilities 
in regard td* subversive organizations and individuals^ 
and extremist groups and activities; pur responsibilities 
in coxinettion with applicant matters, and necessity "for 
carrying put various, phases of our responsibilities at 
colleges ;and other educational establishments* alsd dis- 
cussed was the value, of ciosfe and cooperative relation- 
ships between our organization, the Cincinnati 40ff ice, 
and heads of educational institutions, and the necessity 
that such officials be available from time to time for 
contact on short notice where matters involve a time , 
element or other urgency • 

Br* BENNIS had, apparently done his homework 
-well, as he had a fair picture of developments during 
recent years at the University involving dfemon^rations 
and other activities of interest to the Bifrfeau^

While Dr. BENNIS was not critical \q£ his 
i predecessor, Dr, WALTER LANGSAM, he did 'state frankly 
1 that he is an. entirely different, personality; believes// 
in getting out frequently among the stiidfnts <arid / ^ 
definitely seeking *to communicate witH tlaem chjl a persbh^L 
basis, and being frequently seen around the campus by 
i the students ♦ His comments indicated that he will probably 
I be more amenable to personal "give and take" discussions 
I with the various student elements than was his predecessor* 
His comments indicated that he will probably allow 
students and student groups to take a larger part in 
decision making in matters directlv affecting the students*

In regard to "communicating" with the 
students, he commented that he, recently visited a 
student gathering place near the campus, a restaurant, 
for an hour or so, just to converse with the students' on a 
social and relaxed basis, which he indicated Dr. LANGSAM 
would probably not have done nor approved. 

Dr. BENNIS was very cordial arid -relaxed in 
his discussion with SAC. .He . commented two or three times 
that he had always had the highest regard for FBI Agents 
and the Bureau, and had never met an Agent who did not 
appear to be efficient, and, a gentleman. He stated he 
welcomed and appreciated SAC's visit, indicated that he 
would be available at any time, and should any information 
'come to our attention which we felt might benefit the 
university through him, he would like very much to be 
contacted. 

Further contact will be undertaken with 
Dr. BENNIS from time to time, with considered evaluation 
made of his attitude and cooperativeness as a contact. The

Dear Mr. Kelley: 

The officers and Board of Directors of the University of Cin cinnati 
Alumni Association have invested me with a most welcome responsibintyr 
to invite you as the principal speaker for our Alumni Day Dinner to be held 
in Cincinnati in March, 1974. 

This is a time jui America where the law enforcement and the legal 
profession must find ways of working together. For that reason you seemed 
to^be the most appropriate speaker we could find'for our Dinner. 

I realize that you receive many invitations to speak and, in light of 
your responsibilities,, can only accept a few. For that reason, it seemed 
more than a courtesy to outline some of the facts that may help you make 
a decision on this matter.

Our Annual Alumni Dinner is an important and well attended event. 
In the past few years, Archibald Cox, Justice Goldberg, and former Secre-

posed of prominent judges and lawyers from Ohio and the neighboring states 
of Indiana and Kentucky and is one of quantity as well as quality — it usually 
totals over 500. The speech itself need not be overly scholastic and runs 
about 20 minutes •

Perhaps of more immediate importance than historical detail is 
the fact that you will find that our alumni will be most enthusiastic to 
hear you. Further, I am certain that the media will give your talk the 
fullest and widest publicity if you deem that desirable. 

We have not set a specific date in March in order that you might 
have flexibility in this matter. The Saturday evening of the 2nd, the 
9th, or the 30th would be commensurate with our needs. Of course, we 
will provide all transportation and other costs as well as an honorarium 
if you deem that appropriate. We would be delighted if Mrs. Kelley 
could attend. 



As I am sure you can appreciate, matters such as this must be 
made final well in advance. In that connection, I will call your office 
on October 3, 1973, in order to determine whether you will be able to 
accept our invitation. Should you need more information of any kind, 
please call me at Area Code 513-475,-2631. 

I know that the evening will be a pleasant one for you and that 
your affirmative response will make us all anticipate the finest Alumni 
Dinner in our long history.

HISTORICAL NOTE ON THE UNIVERSITY 

OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 

(CINCINNATI LAW SCHOOL) 



The genesis of the University of Cincinnati College of Law is 
the Cincinnati Law School, which began training law students in 
1833. l Its service to legal education has been substantially con- 
tinuous. 2 This longevity ranks the Law School as the fourth oldest 
in the United States. 3 

The founders of the Cincinnati Law School were Timothy 
Walker, Edward King, and }udge John C. Wright of the Ohio 
Supreme Court. Walker had studied law at Harvard and King at 
Litchfield. This experience convinced them that a student could 
develop his potential in a law school better than through reading 
in a law office. In 1833, the faculty consisted of Walker, who was 
Dean, Judge Wright and Joseph S. Bennam. 4 There were seventeen 
students in the first class. 5 The first sessions were held on the north 
side of Third Street east' of Main Street. The course could be com- 
pleted in one term. The announcement of the Cincinnati Law School, 
dated May 29, 1833, describes the method of instruction as follows: 

_"The course.of instruction will embrace lectures on General 
and local law; practice in Moot Courts organized on the mode of 
the several Courts in Ohio, and frequent examinations upon the 
books read. Also, such^new-and difficult-questions as occur on 
the Circuits in different parts of the State, will be submitted to 
the students for examination." 

This was a strong educational program for its day. 

The Cincinnati Law School lacked authority to confer degrees. 
Another educational institution in Cincinnati, the Cincinnati College, 
had been chartered by the Ohio General Assembly in 1819 and was 
authorized to confer degrees but it did not have a department of 
law. In 1835 The Cincinnati Law School .became a department of 
the Cincinnati College, which,, thereafter conferred degrees on its 

289

-graduates^ including J hose gradimte^injfi33 and 1834. The Cin- 
cinnati College building was located on the easT~side^6f~Walnur" 
Street between Fourth and Fifth Streets. The faculty of the Cin- 
cinnati Law School became the faculty of the Law School of the 
Cincinnati College and the curriculum remained the same. 

The Cincinnati College's first educational program was begun 
in 1819 in the arts and sciences. In the same year that the 'Cincinnati 
Law School joined the Cincinnati College, 1835, a Medical Depart- 
ment was organized in the College by Dr. Daniel Drake. These 
academic units made an important contribution to higher education 
in the United States. 6 However, due to declining fortune, destruction 
of the Colleges building by fire, and the competition of the Wood- 
ward College and the Medical College of Ohio, the arts and sciences 
and medical programs were discontinued. Thus, the Cincinnati 
Law School is the only surviving academic unit of the Cincinnati 
College. 

During the 1800s, the faculty of the Law School practiced law. 
Accordingly, the instruction was given principally in the evening. 
However, toward the turn of the century, a trend to afternoon classes 
developed. By the early 1900s, the classes were scheduled largely 
in the morning hours. No course of previous study was required for 
admission, but students were advised to read prescribed text books 
on law prior to enrollment, and some law students had read law in a 
law office. A substantial percentage of the law students had obtained 
a liberal arts degree. 

The Law School assumed an "in loco parentis" relation to law 
students. The rules of conduct, published in the bulletin for academic 
year 1837-38, forbade students from dueling. Also, students were 
permitted to enter a tavern only if accompanied by one of their 
professors. Corporal punishment "as a means to excitement to 
study" was prohibited, but the rules of conduct provided that "in 
cases of continued wilful disobedience . . _. the instructor . . . may at 
his discretion use the rod. ..." A letter from an irate parent com- 
plained that the infliction of corporal punishment on his son for 
absence from classes was excessive. 

For thirty years, the law degree was conferred on students com- 
pleting one term of six months' duration. In the academic year 
1863-64 the requirement for graduation was increased to two terms 
of six months with a six months' vacation between terms. 7 However, 
if a student, on the basis of reading in a law office, could pass an

examination covering the subjects in the first term, he was given 
advanced standing. 

Timothy Walker is duly credited with firmly establishing the 
Law School. He was devoted to the institution and was highly 
creative. In 1837, he published his "Introduction to American Law*' 
It ran through eleven editions, the last in 1905, and is regarded as the 
"American Blackstone." 8 Also, in 1843, he founded "The Western 
Law Journal* and edited it for many years. The journal reported 
significant judicial decisions and published articles by authorities 
on law. It combined the functions of the modern law reporter and 
law review. Walker was a fine teacher and inspired his students 
with zeal for the Profession of the Law. 

In 1845, the Cincinnati College's building was destroyed, by iire. 
A new" building was constructed on the same site. The Young Men's 
Mercantile Association, which had organized a library in 1822, con- 
tributed $10,000 to the construction of the new building. In exchange 
the College gave a perpetual lease to the Association of space for 
its library. In 1902, the College made a perpetual lease of the site 
of the building on Walnut Street for a perpetual ground rent of 
$10,562 per annum and $50,000 to be used in the construction of the 
new home of the Law School at Ninth Street near Race Street The 
purchaser of the interest constructed a new building at the Walnut 
Street site in which the Mercantile Library is still housed.

-Theonajor part of Jhe Lfuhds for construction of the new home 



of the College was raised through the sale~bf b6nds\ 9 ~TDfTthe~same~ 
year that the Ohio General Assembly empowered the College to 
issue the bonds, at also demonstrated its regard for the quality of the 
College's educational program by authorizing the Supreme Court 
of Ohio to admit graduates of the Law School to the Bar of Ohio 
upon award of their diploma. In 1869, the College building again 
burned, and, in 1870, it was reconstructed. 

The deanship of Maskell E. Curwen spanned the years' 1850-68. 10 
Curwen was the author oV'Curwen on Torts' and edited the Revised 
Statutes of Ohio, continuing the work begun by Salmon E. Chase. 
Outstanding faculty members* during this period included Judge 
Bellamy Storer, who served nineteen years, and Judge George 
Hoadly, who served twenty-three years. JudgeHoadly was Gover- 
nor of Ohio and was an outstanding corporation lawyer. > 

Rufus King was Dean of the Law School from 1875 until 1880. 11 
William Howard Taf t, who studied under Dean King, described him 
as "a man of the highest type, a gentleman bred in the bone, a hard 
headed, hard hitting lawyer, deeply trained in the common law . . . 
He . . . devoted his life long to the cause of education in all its 







Cincinnati College— Walnut Street 



UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 293 

branches. No student could sit under him and not be inspired to 
higher things/' 12 During Dean King's administration, the curriculum 
was broadened substantially and the number of class sessions was 
doubled. 13 Other members of the faculty were Judge Hoadly, 
Professor Henry A. Morrill, who served on the faculty for forty years, 
and Major General Manning F. Force, the author of a textbook 
entitled ''Principles of the Criminal Law!' Dean King taught Con- 
stitutional Law. In his will, he endowed the Rufus King Professorship 
of Constitutional Law, which continues today. 

In 1878, an alumni association of the Law School was organized. 
Charles D. Drake was the first President. 14 

The quality of the educational program was improved greatly 
during the administration of Dean Jacob D. Cox from 1880 to 1897. 
In 1896, the course of study was increased to three academic years 
of eight months each, with a four month vacation between terms. 15 
This was a giant step forward. In 1971 it continues the same. The 
faculty was enlarged by the addition of George R. Sage, Channing 
Richards and Hiram D. Peck. The number of graduates, during 
Coxs administration, averaged seventy-five per year. This is 
the strongest period of the Law School's competitive era in legal 
education. 

Cox achieved a variety of accomplishments. He was a distin- 
guished General in the Civil War and an outstanding military historian 
and scientist. He wasGovernor of Ohio, served brief ly as Secretary 
of the Interior under Grant -^resigning because of differences over 
the civil service — and was then elected to Congress. 

Cox also served as President of the University of Cincinnati from 
1885 to 1889. In 1886, Cox proposed the consolidation of all the 
educational institutions in the City. 16 A union of several of the 
medical institutions was achieved. In 1892,. the .Ohio- General As- 
sembly amended the statute of 1819, which had chartered the Cin- 
cinnati College, to provide that all powers conferred by the statute 
on the Board of Trustees of the Cincinnati College should thereafter 
be exercised by the Board of Trustees of the University of Cincinnati. 17 
The Trustees of the Cincinnati College objected; strenuously to this 
statute. In Ohio v. Neff, the; Ohio Supreme Court held, that the 
statute violated the protection of private property assured by the 
Ohio Constitution and was void. 18 

The litigation between the University and the Cincinnati College 
had disrupted negotiations for a merger of the two schools. Accord- 



294 THE LAW IN SOUTHWESTERN OHIO 

ingly,-in^l896,«the„Uniyersity_of Cincinnati established a Law 
Department- Moving spirits in this developmenTwere Alfred^Br 
Benedict and William Howard Taft. Benedict was a graduate of the 
University and of the Cincinnati Law School and was then serving on 
the Board of Directors of the University. The Law Department was 
begun with an illustrious faculty of six members. William Howard 
Taft, then a Federal Circuit Judge, was made Dean. The other 
members were Judson Harmon, who had served as Attorney-General 
of the United States and was to serve as Governor of Ohio; Lawrence 
Maxwell, who had served as Solicitor-General of the United States; 
Rufus B. Smith, then Judge of the Superior Court and who was to 
serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors of U.C; Dr. Gustavus 
H. Wald, the noted authority on contracts, and J. Doddridge Brannan. 

Professor Langdell of Harvard had developed the "case" system 
of law study to replace the textbook system. It was recognized by 
the faculty of the new Law Department that the "case" method 
created a realistic atmosphere for study of the litigative process and 
laid an effective base for dissection and analysis of legal doctrine. 
Hence, the faculty decided to adopt the "case" method. Wald and 
Brannan had studied under Langdell and were familiar with the 
system. The classes of the new Law Department were conducted 
in rooms on the north side of Fourth Street between Vine and Walnut. 
The law course, like that of the Cincinnati Law School, required 
three academic years for completion. 

The competition between the two Law Schools paved the way 
to an early union. In 1897, the Cincinnati College and the University 
of Cincinnati entered into a contract for a merger of at least ten years. 
The united schools were to be called the Cincinnati Law School. The 
College, which had facilities, was to furnish these and the income 
from its endowment. The University was to contribute $1,000 
annually. The tuition paid by students also was to be used exclusively 
in the legal education program. The reorganization was executed 
by Dean Taft. The members of the faculty of the UC Law depart- 
ment were retained. From the Cincinnati Law School faculty Pro- 
fessor H.A. Morrill and Judge John R. Sayler were appointed but 
Dean Cox, while favoring the merger, declined to serve. The follow- 
ing year, four additional members were appointed: Albert B. 
Benedict, Harlan Cleveland, Frank B. James and Charles M. 
Hepburn. The combined group, constituted an outstanding faculty. 

In 1900, the Association of American Law Schools was organized, 



UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 295 

with the purpose of establishing standards of legal education appro- 
priate to the responsibilities of members of the bar in serving society. 
The Cincinnati Law School participated in the formation of the 
Association and was a charter member. 

Taft was appointed Governor of the Philippines in 1900 and he 
was succeeded as Dean by Professor Gustavus H. Wald. Dean Wald 
was the author of "V/ald's Pollock on Contracts y " which ran through 
three editions. 19 In 1902, after a brief term as Dean, he died. In his 
memory, members of his family, Mrs. Betty Wald and Richard H, 
Wald, endowed the Gustavus H. Wald Professorship of the Law of 
Contracts, which continues today. 

William P. Rogers, who had served as dean of the University of 
Indiana Law School, was appointed Dean in 1902 and served until 
1916. 20 The Cincinnati Law School had been the only law school 
in, Ohio until 1885. However, there were now a number of law 
schools in Ohio and adjoining states. This decreased enrollment. 
Nevertheless, under Rogers, the faculty raised the standard of ad- 
mission from a high school education to one year of college. 21 
During this period, approximately one-third of the students in the 
Law School obtained college degrees prior to beginning law study. 
Also, in this period the curriculum was broadened significantly, and 
greater emphasis was placed on the use of full time faculty members. 

On October 17, 1903, the new home of the Cincinnati Law 
School at 21 West Ninth Street was dedicated. An impressive pro- 
gram was presented. 22 Dean Rogers' address includes a statement 
which discloses his progressive philosophy of legal education: 

"Law, like civilization, is a growth. ... In this evolution of the 
law, in this forward march with civilization, the trained lawyers 
must lead the column. They must guard the community's in- 
terests and-Iook well to her laws, Theproper laws of a com- 
munity may there exist not only long before they are decreed 
but often in contradiction to those which are declared. When the 
letter of the law is dead, when its precepts are disregarded and 
its commands unenforced, it is no longer law in that community 
though no repeal has been enacted, nor decision rendered de- 
claring it void." 

His words are appropriate for the foreseeable future. The 
principal address was given by Sir Frederick Pollock, the eminent 
English jurist, on the virtues of the common law. 



296 THE LAW IN SOUTHWESTERN OHIO 

In 1907, the Cincinnati Law School, upon a unanimous vote 

of the students, adopted the honor system of taking examinations. 23 " 
On his examination book the student was required to certify that 
he had not given or received aid in the examination. Also, he was 
under a duty to report any observed violation by other students. 
This honor system continues in the Law School today. 

On June 5, 1908, the Cincinnati Law School celebrated its 
seventy-fifth anniversary. 24 The major addresses were by Dean 
James Barr Ames of the Harvard Law School and Dean George W. 
Kirchwey of the Columbia School of Law. Dean Ames, empha- 
sized that "The training of students must always be the chief object 
of the law school, but this work should be supplemented by solid 
contributions of their professors to the improvement of law." Dean 
Kirchwey *s address made the point that "our legal education is wholly 
insufficient to answer the high purposes to which the bar of this 
country is called." He recommended that a college degree should 
be a prerequisite to law study, observing that: 

"Our judges are, in the nature of our system, practically the 
leaders in the social revolution which is upon us, and if it is to 
be wisely guided, it should be jn the hands of men who know the 
forces with which they are dealing." 

The agreement for merger which the University of Cincinnati 
and the Cincinnati College made in 1897 only bound the Cincinnati 
College for ten years. In 1911, the Cincinnati College severed its 
connection with the University. 25 It was thought by some trustees 
of the College that the University was exercising disproportionate 
control over the College. __ __ 

In 1916, Dean Rogers retired and was succeeded by Professor 
Alfred B. Benedict. Dean Benedict had been a moving force behind 
the initial merger of the Law Department of the University and the 
Cincinnati College. His interest in unification of the law schools 
continued. Benedict negotiated with Rufus B. Smith, then Chairman 
of the Board of Directors of the University, regarding potential terms 
of a merger. The late Francis H. Baldwin had recently bequeathed 
*$700,000 to the University. Smith assured Benedict that it was 
possible for the University to contribute $13,000 annually to the 
support of the Law School 26 This sum substantially matched the 
income from the endowment of the Cincinnati College. 

In 1918, the final union of the Law School of the Cincinnati

College (Cincinnati Law School) and the University of Cincinnati 
was.achieved. 27 The agreement provided that the University would 
maintain the Cincinnati Law School "as a school of instruction in 
law in the most" approved manner" and "of as high grade or Higher 
than . . . now maintained." The course of instruction was to be at 
least three years. At least three of the faculty were required to be 
full time teachers. The trusts granted to the College by the wills 
of Rufus King, Mary Dexter and John R. Sayler, and* the gifts* of 
Betty Wald, Richard H. Wald and of George* WoodXogan, were to 
be performed by the University. All income from the endowment 
and property of the College and all tuition paid by students* was to 
be applied exclusively to maintenance of the Law School. In ad- 
dition, the University was to contribute $13,000 annually. Today,

Also, the Dean of the UC College of Law serves as one of the Trustees

Dean Rogers, in his final report, stated that it was advisable for 
the Cincinnati Law School to present all legal education offered in 
the vicinity. He suggested that the quality of night legal education 
could be raised substantially by extending the program of study to 
four years, the last of which should be taken in the day law school 28 
In 1916, under Dean Benedict, an Evening Department was begun. 
The faculty which formerly conducted the Cincinnati Y.M.C.A. 
Night Law School became the faculty of the Evening Department 
of the Cincinnati Law School The requirements for graduation 
from the Evening Department with the LL.B. degree were as follows: 

"Satisfactory completion of the three years' course in the 
Evening Department and a one year course in the Day Depart- 
ment to be prescribed by the Trustees, and comprising subjects 
not included in the Evening Department/' 29 

It was explained that the traditional curriculum of night law 
schools omitted some subjects in the growing public law field which 
were offered in day law schools. Students who had successfully 
completed the three year course in the Evening Department were 
admitted to the Bar Examination and it was contemplated that the 
program of study in the Day Department could be taken on released 
time after the student had begun the practice of law. This proved 
to be impractical for some law students in the Evening Department 
and they requested that the requirement of a year's study in the Day 
Department be revoked. Accordingly, the Trustees adopted a policy 
of permitting the fourth year of study to be taken in the Evening 
Department but provided that the instruction should be given by 
Faculty of the Day Department. 30 

Apparently the transfer of the YMCA Night Law School faculty 
to the newly established Evening Department of the Cincinnati Law 
School was not preceded by a firm merger agreement. In any event, 
the YMCA Night Law School continued operations, recruiting a new 
faculty. 31 In the second year of operation of the Evening Depart- 
ment of the Cincinnati Law School, only ten students enrolled. To 
have committed the Law School to four years of instruction for this 
small group would have entailed substantial financial loss, which the 



UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 2S9 

Law School was unable to bear. Accordingly, the Trustees of the 
Law School voted to discontinue enrollment of first year classes in 
the Evening Division and thereby phased out the evening law school 
program. 3 ? 

During World War I, enrollment declined but following the war, 
increased and four of the faculty taught full time. A combined 
liberal arts and law program was adopted under which the liberal 
arts student could devote the senior year to law study- 33 

In 1917, the Law School arid the Legal Aid Society initiated a 
program under which senior law students, under the supervision of 
practicing lawyers, provide legal service to indigent persons. The 
program has continued without interruption and now includes 
junior as well as senior law students. 

In 1920, the building at 21 West Ninth Street was sold and the 
Law School was moved into the original McMicken Building located 
on Clifton Avenue two blocks west of Vine Street, near the old 
streetcar incline. Here classes were conducted until 1925. Professor 
Alfred A. Morrison, who enrolled in the Law School in 1924, recalls 
with nostalgia "the streetcars going up or down on the incline" and 
"the whiff of the hops which emanated so regularly from the brew- 
eries that any student who happened to have studied late and to have 
hurried off to bed without winding his watch could wind and set it 
by the 9:05 a.m. whiff." 34 

On October 25, 1925, the present home of the> Law School, 
Alphonso Taft Hall, located on the main campus of the University 
of Cincinnati, was dedicated. It was most fitting that the building 
be named for Alphonso Taft. A generous contribution toward the 
cost of construction was made by Alphonso Taft's son, Charles P. 
Taft and Mrs. Taft. Alphonso Taft had a life long interest in the 
University of Cincinnati and the Law School. He^ served on the 
faculty of the Law School in 1866-67 and was later Chairman of the 
Board of Directors of the University of Cincinnati. In jpmblic life, 
he was an outstanding jurist, Minister to Austria and Russia, and 
Secretary of War in Grant's Cabinet. Three of Alphonso Taft's 
sons were graduates of the Law School. The principal address at the 
dedication exercises was given by one of these, William Howard 
Taft, who had served as President of the United States and was then 
Chief Justice of the United States. 

In the final analysis, the greatness of a law school is determined 
by the level at which its graduates have carried their professional 



ft** 



300 THE LAW IN; SOUTHWESTERN OHIO 

lespPMibiHties. Measured by that standard, the Cincinnati, Law 



School is a great law school. For example, at thededicationoRffif 
Alphonso Taft Hall, prominent alumni present included President 
and Chief Justice of the United States William Howard Taft, Vice- 
President Charles G. Dawes, Speaker of the House Nicholas Long- 
worth, former Speaker of the House "Uncle Joe" Cannon, Chief 
Justice of Ohio Carrington T. Marshall, former Chief Justice of the 
Ohio Supreme Court Hugh L. Nichols, and other notable graduates. 
Other distinguished alumni include Associate Justice of the Supreme 
Court of the United States Willis Van Devanter, Speakers of the 
House of Representatives Champ Clark and Milton Sayler, United 
States Attorney General Judson Harmon, Solicitor General of the 
United States Lawrence Maxwell, Secretary of Commerce Charles 
Sawyer, and many others who have served as Chief Justices or 
Associate Justices of State Supreme Courts, members of the Federal 
Judiciary, and Senators, Congressmen and Governors of various 
states. 

The striking number of distinguished alumni of the UC College 
of Law is due in significant part to the fact that for a long time the 
Cincinnati Law School was the only Law School west of the Alle- 
ghenies. However, the record is in part a reflection of the high 
quality of- the program of instruction. This- is evidenced by the 
continuingsuccess of alumni of the UCCollege of Law after a large 
number of law schools had been established in Ohio and adjoining 
States. For example, at the present time two members of the United 
States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, Paul C. Weick and 
John W. Peck, four members of the Federal District Court for the 
Southern District of Ohio, David S. Porter, Timothy S. Hogan, 
Joseph P. Kinneary, and Carl B. Rubin, and Associate Justice of the 
Ohio Supreme Court Louis Schneider Jr., are graduates of the UC 
College of Law. Over the years, many UC College of Law graduates 
have been judges in the local trial courts. 

In 1925, Murray Seasongood began his teaching of Municipal 
Corporations, a post held for 34 years, retiring in 1959 at the age of 
eighty. His "Cases on Municipal Corporations," compiled while 
on the UC Faculty, was used in many law schools. He was succeeded 
by Charles P. Taft, the third generation of the Tafts to teach in the 
Cincinnati Law School. 

In 1926, Merton L. Ferson, a gifted teacher, scholar and ad- 
ministrator, became Dean of the UC College of Law and provided 



UNIVERSITY GF CINCINNATI* COLLEGE OF LAW 301 

outstanding leadership for two decades. 35 Ferson had served with 
distinction as Dean of the George Washington University Law School 
and the university of North Carolina Law School. In his teaching, 
Ferson posed hypothetical cases involving a horse named"Pompey" 
and a cow named "Violet." To his students Pompey and Violet be- 
came real personalities. 

Under Ferson, a number of steps were taken to improve the 
quality of legal education. In 1937, three years of college work were 
required for admission to the College of Law. The curriculum was 
broadened. Ferson favored an increase in the time for the law course 
from three to four years; however, the recommendation was not 
adopted. In 1927, the Cincinnati Law Review was begun. It was 
then the only law review published in Ohio. The Review not only 
published articles by authorities on law but also provided a medium 
for publication of comments and notes oh recent cases written by 
law students. Even today the Law Review is the most effective 
teaching tool in the Law School. Case clubs were organized to 
develop skill in oral argument. One of the clubs was named for 
Timothy Walker and the other for William Howard Taft. Ferson 
developed (with Stoddard) the first law school aptitude test and 
used it in the admissions process at UC. He increased the ratio of 
full time to part time teachers and by attracting members from 
different parts of the country made the faculty more national in 
character. To maintain communication with alumni, the "Bulletin," 
containing news of significant events at the Law School was regularly 
sent to the graduates. 

In 1928^ Mrs. Edith Harrison Smith endowed at the UC College 
of Law a law collection as a memorial to her late husband, Rufus 
B.~Smith v Rufus B, Smith was a distinguished alumnus, a member 
of the faculty of law, and chairman of the Board of Directors of the 
University of Cincinnati. Today the Rufus B. Smith Law Collection 
exceeds 67,060 volumes. 

On June 9, 1933 the centennial of the Cincinnati Law School 
was celebrated. Distinguished alumni convened from all parts of 
the country. The major address in the impressive program was 
given by Dean Rbscoe Pound of the Harvard Law School. 

The great depression of the early thirties had a strong impact 
on law. Many new laws intended to restart the stalled economy 
were passed and new administrative agencies were created to ex- 
ecute these laws. These changes called for a reexamination of the 



302 THE LAW IN SOUTHWESTERN OHIO 

curriculum and-increasedemphasis orfthe public law. Dean Ferson 
and the creative faculty which he had helped to assemble were 
equal to this. The student not only was trained in the lawyer's 
skills but also, using Ferson's term, developed "social-mindedness." 

Dean Ferson appreciated the importance of organizations in 
promoting excellence in legal education. He, together with Grauman 
Marks — then Chairman of the Legal Education Committee of the 
Ohio Bar Association — led the founding of the League of Ohio 
Law Schools. Also, he served as the League's first President. This 
organization has contributed to the improvement of standards of 
legal education among the law schools of Ohio. Ferson served with 
distinction as President of the Association of American Law Schools, 
which serves a similar function on the national level. 

Dean Ferson was sensitive to the relationship between law 
schools and the profession of the bar. He was president of the Cin- 
cinnati Bar Association. Also he led the establishment of the Cin- 
cinnati Law Institutes and Bar Conferences in which outstanding 
authorities in the law lectured and judges, lawyers and law teachers 
participated. Some of these proceedings were published in the 
Cincinnati Law Review The topics selected were timely and im- 
portant and the treatment of them was creative. 

The UC College of Law, like all other educational institutions 
in the country, was greatly affected by World War II. The entry into 
the armed forces of young men and women of law school age 
drastically reduced enrollment Most members of the full time 
faculty took leaves of absence to serve in the armed forces or in 
the new Federal agencies created to facilitate the war effort and to 
maintain economic stability. Consideration was given to closing 
the Law School for the duration of the war. However, the Cin- 
cinnati Law School had a record of continuous service through the 
Civil War, Spanish-American War and World War L The impor- 
tance of maintaining unbroken the Law Schools long record of 
continuous service was appreciated. Hence, the educational pro- 
gram was continued throughout World War II. In view of the small 
number of students enrolled and the desire to maintain the high 
quality of the Cincinnati Law Review, publication of the Review 
was suspended from 1942 to 1947. 

Ferson made a substantial contribution to legal scholarship. 
He was one of the "restaters" of the American Law Institute's 
"Restatement of Contracts" and did the annotations for the Ohio 



UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 303 

section. His "Rational Basis of Contracts" and "Principles of Agency" 
are creative approaches to the simplification and clarification of 
these complex areas of law* Other members of the faculty pub* 
lished important works. Among these was Professor Harold 
Shepherd who, while a member of the UC faculty of law, edited 
the first edition of his "Cases and Materials on Contracts." At the 
age of seventy, Ferson reached the compulsory retirement age at 
DC. For him retirement was fifteen more years of teaching and 
publication at other law schools. 

In 1946, Frank S. Rowley, who had been a Professor at the UC 
College of Law for twenty years, became Dean. Professor Rowley 
was a fine teacher and compiled a highly practical casebook on 
"Secured Transactions." The first article published in the Cincinnati 
Law Review is an article by Rowley on the subject of radio broad- 
casting. During World War II, Professor Rowley was Procurement 
Judge Advocate of the Army. He was cognizant of the place of 
public law in society. Faculty recruited during his deanship typically 
had experience in practice with administrative agencies as well as 
in private law firms. 

During World War II, most persons who contemplated study- 
ing law had postponed their legal education in order to enter the 
armed services. At the end of World War II, this backlog of law 
students inundated the law schools throughout the country. It was 
deemed in the over-all interest to assist the returning service men 
and women to make up part of the time given in the service of their 
country. By omitting the usual three months summer vacation and 
most holidays, three full semesters of law study were compressed 
into each academic year. In this way, the three year law curriculum 
was^ completed in two years. In this period, enrollment at the UC 
College of Law reached a peak of L 439~students ? and facilities^were 
overcrowded. Nevertheless, through diligent effort, the faculty 
maintained a course of study of excellent quality. 

During Dean Rowley's administration, the Robert S. Marx 
Seminars were begun. Through these programs, outstanding 
authorities on law and political science are brought to the College 
to discourse on timely, significant developments in the law. Origi- 
nally admission was by invitation issued to persons selected on the 
basis of potential interest. Judge Marx developed at the College of 
Law his creative course entitled "Facts." In this course, he taught 
students techniques for discovering, preserving and presenting facts 



304 THE LAW m SOUTHWESTERN OHIO 



-at the pre-litigative"and^litigativelevelsr^The classroom theory was 
implemented with clinical sessions in offices of the United States 
Attorney, Prosecuting Attorney for Hamilton County, and other 
legal offices. Thus, he anticipated by years the present swing of the 
pendulum of legal education toward the clinical method; 

In 1948, Judge John W: Peck began his Practice Court, in which 
Senior law students conducted a complete trial of a case. Judge Peck 
held this court until 1968, during much of this period commuting 
from Columbus, Ohio; where he served on the Ohio Supreme Court 
and as Tax Commissioner. 

In 1952, while in the prime of life, Dean Rowley died. His un- 
timely passing was a great loss to the College of Law. Those who 
studied under him remember his mastery of his subject and his 
insistence that students be completely familiar with' the materials 
studied. Seldom has a man more completely won the. hearts 'and 
respect of his students and faculty. 

The greatness of any institution depends in significant part on 
a woman who places the institution above all else. At the UC College 
of Law, this woman was Nettie Birk. Nettie Birk began serving 
the College in 1917. She became Secretary of the Faculty in 1918 
and, when the position of Secretary of the College was created in 
1947, she was named to it. She was devoted to law students and, did 
all in her ability to assist them. She followed the progress of the 
alumni with deep interest. Throughout her service, she compiled 
scrapbooks which recorded the events at the Law School and the 
success of the alumni. She had planned to retire in 1952, after 35 
years of service. However, when Dean Rowley died suddenly and 
an inexperienced administrator was selected dean, she obeyed the 
call of duty two additional years. During World War II, Nettie Birk 
originated a newsletter through which her students in the armed 
services kept contact with each other. An alumnus somewhere over 
there wrote to Nettie Birk: "Keep the Servicemen's News Letter 
coming. It is a morale builder of the highest order." At the UC 
College of Law, Nettie Birk was alma mater. 

Following the death of Dean Rowley, Professor Roscoe L. 
Barrow was named Acting Dean in 1952 and Dean in 1953. Prior to 
joining the faculty in 1949, he had served in legal positions with 
several Federal departments and agencies, being at one time Special 
Assistant to the Attorney General of the United States. 

Following World War II, enrollment in law schools throughout 



UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 305 

the country had reached a new crest due to the return of the service- 
men. The rapid entry into the profession of large numbers of law 
school graduates eventually created a delay in assimilation of them. 
Consequently, enrollment at UC and in law schools throughout the 
country declined substantially. 

In 1952, the UC Jaw students formed the Student Bar Associa- 
tion. Through the Association, the law students govern themselves. 
In this way, professional responsibility and leadership are developed. 
Also the Association invites judges and lawyers to address the students 
and plans student activities. 

Also in 1952, an exchange program between students of the 
Colleges of Medicine and Law was developed. Medical students 
gave expert testimony or attending physician testimony in Practice 
Court cases involving medico-legal issues. Law students joined 
medical students in the diagnostic clinics at the College of Medicine. 
The purpose was to bring about greater understanding and power 
of communication between doctors and lawyers in order that both 
professions, might better serve the patient-client. The innovation 
was reported in Newsweek Magazine for February 2, 1953 and 
generated favorable comment in educational journals. 

From 1953 through 1954, Dean Barrow, aided by some mem- 
bers of the faculty, conducted a study of the laws and administrative 
practices throughout the. country relating to epilepsy. The results of 
the study were reported in a book, "Epilepsy and the Law," written 
by Dean Barrow and Dr. Howard D. Fabing, a member of the 
faculty of the College of Medicine and, a world renowned neurol- 
ogist. Within a decade, the anachronistic laws described in the 
book had been repealedjmd the model laws proposed therein had 
been enacted throughout the country. 

In 1954, the College of Law began a program of continuing 
legal education for practicing lawyers. These courses were of full 
semester length but were nob a part of a degree program. The 
courses were intended to provide the practicing lawyer with ad- 
vanced professional study in areas of law which were new or which 
were undergoing substantial change. Courses were presented in 
Dayton, Ohio, as well as in Cincinnati. The continuing Jegal educa- 
tion program was directed by Professor Frank D. Emerson, the 
author of a book on corporation law entitled "Shareholder 
Democracy /' 

In the fifties, legal education was. criticized by the Profession 



306 THELAW^IN-SOUTHWESTERN OHIO 



otthe TBar for insufficient emphasis upon development of the law- 
yer s skills. Many commentators recommended that law students 
be required to serve a clinical period comparable to the internship 
served by medical students. The faculty of the College of Law 
attempted to meet this criticism by developing a unique program 
of applied skills. Since 1917, senior law students had been serving 
in the Legal Aid Clinic conducted by the Legal Aid Society. Judge 
Marx had created at UC his unique course on "Facts/* The "Case 
Club" course provided first year students experience in writing 
briefs and arguing appellate cases. The "Practice Court" provided 
third year students experience in trying a case. However, to augment 
the applied skills program, the faculty increased the hours required 
for graduation from 80 to 86, and added a "Legal Writing Seminar," 
in which students draft legal instruments such as the beginning law- 
yers must prepare, and a course in "Trial Technique," in which stu- 
dents study the more difficult phases of trial work. In 1956, Pro- 
fessor Irwin C. Rutter was appointed to supervise the applied skills 
program and to integrate it with the substantive theory courses. 
He made significant contributions to education in the applied skills, 
which other law schools have adopted. 

Prior to 1953, the Marx Seminars had been designed for prac- 
ticing lawyers and, with rare exception, students were not invited. 
In 1953, a second category of Marx programs, the Marx Lectures, 
was begun, designed for law students. However, lawyers having a 
special interest in the subject matter were invited. 

In 1958, A College of Law publication, "Letter to the Alumni" 
was begun and served the important function of informing alumni 
of significant events at the Law School. 

During the biennium 1957-59, the faculty revised the curricu- 
lum substantially. One object was to maintain the interest of 
students by providing more individualized instruction. Thus in the 
third year, the number of seminars was increased. Seminar classes 
are limited in size and the emphasis is on research and the writing 
of a major paper. Some of the seminars were interdisciplinary in 
character, notably Land Utilization and Nuclear Energy Law. 

The Librarian, Professor William B. Jeffrey, Jr., reconstructed 
the card catalogue for the law collection. He noted that the last 
available shelf space had been filled, and that it would be necessary 
to postpone substantial acquisitions until a new library building 
could be provided.

On May 9 and 10, 1958, the 125th anniversary of the College of 
Law and the centennial of the birth of its outstanding alumnus, 
William Howard Taft, were celebrated. The commemoration was 
a homecoming for alumni from all parts of the country. The high- 
light of the program was an address. by Chief Justice of the united 
States Earl Warren. He called for greater emphasis on judicial ad- 
ministration in order that the work of the courts might be expedited 
and even-handed justice dispensed* The Chief Justice, who received 
an honorary degree, was very tolerant of the "Impeach Earl Warren" 
sign conspicuously displayed in downtown Cincinnati. 

At the Alumni Association Banquet, an outstanding alumnus, 
former Secretary of Commerce Charles Sawyer, was the principal 
speaker. He warned that the Bill of Rights was being interpreted in 
a manner which protected criminals and that the government, in the 
process of informing citizens, was aiding Communist Russia. 
Speaking of the grand tradition of the Cincinnati Law School, Dean 
Barrow concluded, "In our Commemorative Exercises we express 
pride in our grand tradition. But we also look to the past as a pro- 
logue to a greater future. Let us so serve that, when our Sesqui- 




Law School— University of Cincinnati 



308 THE LAW JN^SOUTHWESTEHNOHfO 

^Centennialis celebrated, those who appraise our work may say that 
this too, was a worthy part of the grand tradition/* 

Early in.1961, a representative of the Board of Trustees of the 
Salmon P. Chase College of Law opened negotiations with the Presi- 
dent and Board of Directors of the University of Cincinnati for a 
merger of the Chase College with UC. Initially, the President and 
Board of Directors of UC were favorably inclined toward a merger. 
However, when the subject was broached to the Dean and Faculty 
of the UC College of Law, they suggested that the merger might 
result in deterioration of the educational program of the College of 
Law and recommended that a thorough study be made prior to 
reaching a decision; 

It was pointed out that the quality law schools having day arid 
evening divisions were phasing out their evening divisions and that, 
in the complex society of today and for the foreseeable future, the 
"rule of law" required training at the highest professional level. Just 
as the medical schools, on the basis of the Flexner Report,- long ago 
discontinued part time medical education, today the prevailing view 
among legal educators is that training for the profession of the law 
is a full time job. At the turn, of the century, the Cincinnati Law 
School was a day law school and it seemed anachronistic to begin 
an evening law school in 1961. Also, the merger in 1916 of the U.C. 
College of Law with the Y.M.C.A. Night Law School had proved 
unsuccessful More important, to have maintained an evening law 
school program at the quality level attained in the day law school 
would have entailed much greater cost than the typical night law 
school incurred. 

To aid in solving the question of whether the two Colleges 
of Law should be merged, a representative of the Association of 
American Law Schools and a representative of the Airierican Bar 
Association were commissioned to make a study. While differing 
on the advisability of a merger, these authorities agreed that, if pro- 
grams of equal quality were to be maintained in the day and evening 
programs, a substantial additional endowment of the evening pro- 
gram would have been necessary: The representative of Chase 
College was informed of this report. On this note, negotiations 
terminated. 

"Give me alog hut," said James A. Garfield, "with only a simple 
bench, Mark Hopkins on one end and I on the other, and you may 
have all the buildings, apparatus and libraries without him." This 



UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OR LAW 309 

statement appropriately emphasizes the importance of good teach- 
ing. The Socratic method, in which King Professor Wilbur R. Lester 
at UC is skilled, is essential to strong legal education. However, 
legal education of high quality also requires facilities and service 
conducive to research and study. Alphonso Taft Hall was planned 
when the full time faculty was small, secretarial staff limited, and a 
library and one class room for each of the three years in law school 
were adequate facilities. The expansion of full time faculty, in- 
crease in secretarial service, growth of the book collection, and addi- 
tion of seminar and elective courses, rendered Alphonso Taft Hall 
inadequate. 

The Trustees of the Robert A. Marx Estate, Mr. Samuel Hutten- 
bauer, Mr. Howard Kaichen, Mr. Lawrence I. Levi, and Mr. Hugh 
White recognized this. Also, they appreciated that because of Judge 
Marx's life-long interest in the College of Law, as alumnus, teacher 
and benefactor, an improvement of the facilities would be a most 
appropriate memorial to Judge Marx. Judge Marx had expressed 
to some of the Trustees, the wish that they make a substantial gift 
to the College. In academic year 1961-62, The Trustees donated 
$450,000 for the construction of .the Robert S. Marx Law Library. 
The construction of a new building for the law collection released 
space in Alphonso Taft Hall for other essential uses. These improve- 
ments enabled law students to prepare more effectively to assume 
their professional responsibilities. Professor Charles E. Stevenson, 
who was a civil engineer and lawyer, was the faculty chairman for 
this improvement. 

At the commencement exercises in June 1963, the graduates 
for the firsttime received the Juris Doctor degree. Later the degree 
was conferred retroactively upon recipients, of the LL.B. degree 
who preferred the J.D. degree. Law students are requifedto obtain, 
a baccalaureate degree prior to beginning study of law. They spend 
three more years in residence to obtain the degree in law. The total 
years of higher education required to qualify for the law degree are 
seven. A, baccalaureate degree, in law connotes a lower level x>f 
education than has in fact been obtained. This tends to downgrade 
the profession of the law in the eyes of the public. More recently, the 
American Bar Association has recommended that law schools 
change the law degree from LL.B. to J.D. and this recommendation 
has been adopted widely. 

In 1957 students of the College of Law began publication of a 



310 THE LA\tlN~SOVTH\VEStERN OHIO 



-newspaper, "The Restatement" This medium of communication 
has provided an important forum for the dissemination of ideas 
regarding legal education. Also, it reports significant events at the 
College of Law. 

From 1951 to 1964, the Master of Laws degree was offered at 
the College of Law. The College did not have a special graduate 
law department such as exists in law schools having substantial 
enrollment in the program of graduate study. However, the pro- 
gram was useful to the occasional law graduate who desired to 
spend a fourth year of law study in a special area. In 1964, the 
graduate program was terminated because enrollment was in- 
creasing and faculty resources had to be conserved for the J.D, 
program. 

In 1961, Professor Stanley E. Harper, Jr., was appointed Asso- 
ciate Dean of the UC College of Law. Prior to his appointment, the 
administration had been conducted by a dean without the aid of a 
second officer. 

On May 6-8, 1965, the Robert S. Marx Law Library was dedi- 
cated. The dedicatory exercises were held in conjunction with the 
Twenty-Sixth Annual Conference of the Sixth Judicial Circuit of the 
United States. In attendance were the Judges of the Federal Courts 
in the Sixth Judicial Circuit, representatives from many sister law 
schools throughout the United States, and alumni and friends of the 
College of Law. The dedicatory address was made by the Chief 
Justice of the United States Earl Warren. The Chief Justice was 
introduced by Mr. Justice Potter Stewart, then Sixth Circuit Justice. 
The theme for the dedicatory events was "Decision Making in a 
Free Society." The Chief Justice adopted this theme for his address. 
Emphasizing the role of the individual in decision making, he said: 
"Each of us has the grave responsibility of decision-making. He also 
has the obligation to let the decision be known — through the ballot, 
by communicating with his legislative representatives, and by ex- 
pressing himself at the community level/* 

In 1963, Dean Barrow had announced his resignation as Dean, 
effective at the end of the 1964-65 academic year. In 1965, Dr. 
Claude R. Sowle was appointed Dean. Dean Sowle had served as 
Associate Dean of the Northwestern University School of Law and 
had gained national recognition as an authority on Criminal Law. He 
was co-editor of a widely used casebook on Criminal Law, "Cases 
* and Comments on Criminal Justice," and of a book entitled "A 



UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 311 

Concise Explanation of the Illinois Criminal Code/* Also he was 
Editor in Chief of the Journal of Criminal Law, Criminology and 
Police Science from 1960 to 1965. Dean Sowle was very perceptive 
of public relations and possessed a gift for administration. In 1967, 
during the illness of Vice President for Academic Affairs Hoke S. 
Greene, Dean Sowle exercised the additional role of Acting Vice 
President of Academic Affairs at UC. 

As a result of the greatly increased office space and book ca- 
pacity made possible by completion of the Robert S. Marx Law 
Library building the remodeling of Alphonso Taft Hall, and the 
national trend of increasing enrollment, the full time faculty was 
increased from eleven to sixteen, the College's rate of book acquisi- 
tion was doubled, the staff for the Library and secretarial service 
for the Faculty were increased substantially, and enrollment reached 
300 in the 1968-69 school year. Notwithstanding the significant in- 
crease in the size of the student body, admission standards, in terms 
of the required scholastic average in pre-law study and the law school 
aptitude score, were raised substantially. 

Associate Dean Harper, after the first year of Dean Sowle's 
administration, returned to full time teaching and Professor Samuel 
S. Wilson became Associate Dean. 

Dean Sowle's administrative talent was recognized by the 
presidential search committees of various universities. In June 
1969, after four years of service as Dean, Dr. Sowle resigned to accept 
the Presidency of Ohio University at Athens, Ohio. Upon his res- 
ignation, Professor Samuel S. Wilson was named Acting Dean and 
Professor James L. Kennedy, Jr. was named Associate Dean. 

In 1969, the Ohio Supreme Court -issued a rule which permits 
law students to practice law under limited conditions and, in 1970, 
the College of Law established a Civil and Criminal Practice Clinic, 
which utilizes the Court's student practice rule. As space in the 
Alphonso Taft Hall and the Robert S. Marx Library was exhausted, 
a building at 316 West McMillian Street was rented to house the 
Clinic. Here law students, supervised by a Clinical Instructor, pro- 
vide representational services to indigents in all phases of civil and 
criminal matters, including trial and appeal. The criminal cases 
are in the Hamilton County Municipal Court. The civil cases may 
be in local courts or before administrative agencies. In addition to 
representing clients, the clinical program includes a classroom com- 
ponent and a writing requirement. The first Clinical Instructor was 



312 _^~ — -"-* THE LAW IN SOUTHWESTERN .OHIO 



Professor Thomas E. Murphy., He was assisted in establishing pro- 
cedure and policy by Acting Dean- Samuel S. Wilson and Professor 
John J. Murphy. 

In 1970, two important gifts were made to.supportthe, program 
of legal education. The Nippert Chair of Law -was .endowed, with a 
gift of $625,000. This chair, occupied by the Dean of the College of 
Law, honors two members of the Nippert family who attended* the 
College of Law, Judge Alfred K. Nippert (1897), and James G. 
Nippert, who was a member of the class of 1924, and who .died in 
1923,, following an injury incurred in playing varsity football at UC. 
Also, Mr. Joseph L. Meyer, class of 1896, established the "Jacob and 
Rosa Meyer Endowment" to support the Law Library of the College 
of Law. In memory of the late Mr. Joseph L. Meyer, the Court Room 
at the College of Law has been named the "Joseph.L. Meyer Court 
Room." 

In academic year 1969-70 the unusual phenomenon of campus 
unrest spread through the country like an epidemic. Escalation of 
the war in Southeast Asia triggered riots at many universities and 
some students were killed, notably at Kent State University in Ohio 
and Jackson State in Mississippi. The latter events, and the appear- 
ance on the campus of outsiders, led to conditions at the University 
of Cincinnati constituting a threat to life and property. As the atmo- 
sphere was too charged with emotion and fear to permit effective 
study and a repetition of the tragedy at Kent State seemed possible, 
the Administration recommended and the Board of Directors 
ordered the closing of the University. 

When the closing occurred, classes at the College of Law, had 
been substantially completed. However, it was not possible to give 
examinations. The faculty adopted a.policy of giving examinations 
later to those students who were required to have taken examinations 
in order to be admitted to a Bar Examination or for other purpose. 

During 1969-70, a Decanal Selection Committee searched for a 
permanent Dean. Acting Dean Wilson requested that he not be 
considered for the post. After an extensive search, Dr. Edward A. 
Mearns, Jr., was appointed Dean. He had served as Associate Dean 
of the University of Virginia School of Law and as Dean* at Long 
Island University. Dean Mearns was a consultant on civil rights to 
the United States Commission on Civil Rights and the United States 
Commissioner of Education. Also, he was Associate Director of the 
Association of* American Law Schools' Orientation Program in 



UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 313 

American Law, which assists foreign law students in accommodating 
to the study of law in the United States. 

Dean Mearns is an ideal Dean for the time. He is very effective 
in communicating with students. His administration is personalized, 
the conference being used extensively, and invites "input" in decision 
making. Dr. Mearns values the importance of long range planning 
and is setting new goals for the future service of the College of Law. 
Immediate problems which he faces are that the increased enroll- 
ment has rendered, the- reader stations in the relatively new Robert 
S. Marx Law Library below the standard required by the Association 
of American Law Schools and the number of students per faculty 
member above the level desired by law schools of highest quality. 

In 1971, the Faculty's continuous study of the curriculum led to 
a number of modifications. Practically all courses offered in the 
second and third years of law study were made elective. The re- 
searcti and writing program was extended so as to provide substantial 
research and writing programs during each of the three years of law 
study. The clinical and field work was expanded. Courses relating 
to the protection of the environment, the problems of consumers 
and the urban poor, and other areas of concern to present day 
America, were added to the curriculum. 

At the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Cincinnati* Law School, 
in 1908; Dean James Barr Ames of the Harvard Law School observed 
that an important function of a law school is "solid contributions by 
their professors to the improvement of law." For a partial list of 
recent contributions, see Footnote 36. 

This is a time of student concern and involvement. College 
graduates are turning increasingly to law study and the Profession 
of the Law asa forum in which to -contribute to. the solving of the 
problems of mankind. Law students today display more social 
mindedness than has been exhibited since the great depression of 
the thirties. To fill an entering class of 100 students in the fall of 1971, 
the College of Law selected from 1,300 applicants. The qualifica- 
tions, in terms of undergraduate scholarship and law school aptitude 
test scores, are rising. Law students are joining the faculty on com- 
mittees for the study of curriculum and other matters of concern to 
students. Their views contribute to sound decision making and 
improve the quality of legal education. 

With a creative faculty making solid contributions to teaching 
and the improvement of the law, gifted students involved in the

IcoSceniFof society, and the new leadership provided fc>y Dean 
Mearns, the UC College of Law in 1971 is taking its place in the 
grand tradition of the Cincinnati Law School. May the College of 
Law, as Rufus B. Smith said long ago, "Ever turn its eyes to the 
rising — not the setting sun/' 

Roscoe L. Barrow 



l This historical note is based principally upon the official records and publica- 
tions of the Cincinnati Law School, the Cincinnati College and the UC College of 
Law, Professor Reginald C. McGrane's history, "The University of Cincinnati: A 
Success Story in Higher Education" (Harper & Row, New York, 1963), the Cincinnati 
Alumnus for March 1933, publicizing the celebration of the centennial of the Law 
School, the scrapbooks compiled by the late Secretary of the College, Nettie Birk, 
and the proceedings and addresses at significant events in the life of the College, 
have provided valuable information. 

2 No session was conducted during academic year 1841-42 because due to de- 
clining enrollment a number of the faculty had resigned and Dean Walker was ill. 
Except for this year, the service of the Cincinnati Law School has been continuous 
from 1833 to the present. 

3 The older law schools are Harvard (1817), Yale (1824) and Virginia (1825). 
Other law schools, such as Litchfield, were established prior to 1833. Among these 
was Transylvania located at Lexington, Kentucky. However, these schools were 
dissolved. 

4 A year later, Edmund S. Mansfield was appointed. 

5 One of these students was Charles D. Drake, the son of Dr. Daniel Drake. 
Charles Drake became United States Senator from Missouri, Chief Justice of the 
United States Court of Claims, and wrote a book entitled "Drake on Attachment." 

6 During the Presidency of Dr. William H. McGuffey, 1836-1839, he published 
the first through the fourth in his long series of "McGuf fey's Eclectic Readers." The 
College established what was probably the first professorship of music in the United 
States, a testimonial to the musical interest of Cincinnatians. Also, in 1836, it estab- 
lished one of the first courses in civil engineering to be offered by any educational 
institution in the nation. In 1843, it erected an astronomical observatory. The faculty 
of the Medical Department was highly regarded and published medical textbooks 
and the Western Journal of Medicine. 

7 See "The Thirteenth Annual Catalogue of the Law School of the Cincinnati 
College for the Academical Year 1863-64," pages 6 and 7. 

8 In his address at the dedication of Alphonso Taft Hall, in 1925, Chief Justice of 
the United States William Howard Taft said, "Just last week Mr. Justice Oliver 
Wendell Holmes . . . told me that it was Walker's American Law that first gave him 
any adequate conception of what law was and what was the profession upon which 
he was entering."

L. Telford, partners in the practice of law, were in charge of the Law School from

1844 to 1849. Their method of instruction emphasized examination upon assigned 
textbooks on law. See McGrane, Supra note 1, page 39.

administration was rotated annually among the faculty.

^In 1955, Dean Barrow was appointed to direct a study of the broadcasting 
industry and the regulation of it by the Federal Communications Commission. In 
October 1957, the book length report resulting from the study, "Network Broad- 
casting," was published. The study brought about some new legislation by the Con- 
gress, substantial changes in the FCC s regulations, and significant changes in the 
practices of the broadcasting industry. 

In the early sixties, members of the Faculty engaged in significant publication 
and public service. King Professor Wilbur R. Lester served as Staff Director of the 
Committee on Personnel of the Administrative Conference of the United States 
and was the author of the important report on Hearing Examiners. Professor Robert

Professor Ernest C. Friesen, Jr., with the aid of a grant from the Ford Foun- 
dation, conducted field studies in pre-trial -conference procedures. Professor 
Richard L. Strecker wrote. a book on "Taxation of Close Corporations." Dean 
Barrow was appointed Consultant to the Federal Communications Commission 
and he was President of the Cincinnati Bar Association in 1962-63. 

During Dean Sowle's administration, members of the Faculty performed 
significant public service and publication! Professor Stanley E. Harper, Jr., served 
as Staff Director of the Rules Advisory Committee of the Supreme Court of Ohio 
and had a major role in the development of the Ohio Rules of Civil and Appellate 
Procedure. Professor Fred A. Dewey made a field study of the handling of mental 
cases by the Probate Courts of Ohio. Professor Robert N. Cook, in 1967, conducted 
the Tri-State Conference on A Comprehensive Unified Land Data System, and in 
1969, published "Real Property in Computers and the Law." Wald Professor Roscoe 
L. Barrow, in 1965, published the revised second edition of "Epilepsy and the Law," 
and in 1968 directed hearings for the House Interstate and Foreign Commerce 
Committee on the Fairness Doctrine. Professor John J. Murphy in 1966-67 was 
Project Director of the Release of Indigent Accused Project, conducted in coopera- 
tion with the Cincinnati Bar Association, and, in 1969, was Director of the CLEO 
program conducted at the UC College of Law in collaboration with other law 
schools in Ohio and adjoining States. Professor Gersham Goldstein, in 1968, wrote 
Volume 6 of Barton's Federal Tax Laws Correlated. 

In 1971, the Faculty of the College of Law was continuing to practice Dean 
Ames' standard. Professor William T. Bahlman, Jr. was rewriting Davies' two 
volume work on Corporation Law. Wald Professor Roscoe L. Barrow was serving 
as Chairman of the Contracts Committee of the National Conference of Bar Ex- 
aminer s Multi-State Bar Examination project and was writing a book on broad- 
casting law. Professor Robert N. Cook's Comprehensive Unified Land Data System 
concept had been adopted in Malaysia and implementation of it in the United States, 
Canada and other countries was being considered strongly. Professor Kenneth L. 
Aplin was named Adviser to the Supreme Court of Ohio with regard to the drafting 
of the Ohio Rules of Criminal Procedure. Professor Gersham Goldstein's book en- 
titled "Readings in Death and Gift Tax Reform" was published. Professor Stanley E. 
Harper, Jr., published a book entitled "Civil Rules Volume for Paige's Ohio Code"

Dear Mr. Kelley; 




9*? 



I understand that Victor E. Schwartz,, Acting Dean of 
our College of Law, has invited you' to be the principal 
speaker at the Annual Law Alumni Dinner in March of 1974. 

I wanted to let you know the importance of this event, 
jit is our University's main vehicle for communicating with 
judges and lawyers in. the greater Cincinnati area. , 

I realise that you must be besieged with offers to 
speak, but thought it might be of some help to you to know 
that the significance of the Annual Law Alumni Dinner goes 
beyond the walls of the' Law College and is a matter that is 
of interest to the University and the legal community. 



With highest regard., I am.

THOUGHTS ANDSTBATEGIES OR iSLAMIc'jGUBRRILLA WARFARE 



\ > O " is O 

"^ THE UNITED STATES • 

The divine parameters of Al-Islam a"s a universe of spiritual & intel- 
lectual thought and continual religious discipline include community^ & in- 
dividual opinions, attitudes and positions on political issues as they 
mj.qht directly relate to the interests of the Islamic Jummat, nationally 
•md .internationally. Thus, when political issues develop which affect 
the Islamic community in part or in whole, the entire Islamic community mu:;v 
have involvement towards the resolution of the issue.- 

Muslims in America should not consider themselves* an isolated community 
from the rest of the Islamic world; we have a special responsibility to 
i lah and to our consciences .to come to the defense of Al-Islam in no un-_ 
certain terms, methods and resources to represent the determined stance of 
Al-Islam when America is involved in a political situation or an on-going 
cold war that concerns or threatens the safe interests of the Islamic com- 
munity. 

As well, the rest of the Islamic community, leaders "and 'Arab-Islamic' 
countries around the world must also have the knowledge that there are 
active Muslims in the -.United States who are willing and able to come to the 
defense of Al-Islam when any Dart of the community is threaten; as well, 
they must be supportive of our efforts in real "terms. Further, a so-callec 
Muslim who does" not understand that our community is a very important 
segment of the whole Islamic society is himself or herself a threat and 
dangerous element of the community. 

. Thus, because Al-Islam is a total way of life , we must be" prepared • 
and willincr to defend our lively interests and future with rhetoric, de- 
nonstrations, coordinated policies, and physical warfare if necessary. ^Per- 
nission is given from the Almighty Allah to engage in warfare in the de^er.p-r 
' Df Islam and there occasionally comes a time throughout history by Allah vt.< 
. warfare by Muslims in defense of the community as a whole is the most in- 
telligent method, both spiritually and politically. J 

The United States has threaten the Islamic community with the^use of 
i "eir military 'option' in what it considers in the interests o,. the 
•unerican people and country. Such threats have been recently targetd at 
the Islamic Republic of Iran where, our fellow Muslim brothers ana sis.ers 
are active in the Islamic Movement behind the cry "Allah-u-Akbar , God 
is Great. And indeed God is Great. 

Muslims in America can not any longer tolerate such arrogence by the 
3.S. and must now prepare to stand behind of Isiam in warfare in-tue *»."*:. 
5tac.es. At the point when the United States initiates military action 35^-- 
st our community, measures must counter until the wnoie 01 out conunum uy — 
safe. One must also remember, that the U.S. is indirectly endangering our 
. soiiuiunity by their military & financial support of tne so-caixea »wue 
Df israel. " "..11*: .".../, 

However. Islamic querrilla warfare in the United States must not be 
Planned. Strategies 'must be thorough, e.g., targets must oe cnosen 
intalUaentlv and realistically, weapons should be chosen m correlation wi 



.. . ... > a t * - 1 r -. •••* ~~ * > - 

jet s/per sons in mind, tim£\j, nocturnal encounter ^V****** ?!!'^ 
! A^l safety, retreat metfcSs, etc. But most xmportifejly, it is not 
-ssary for a Muslim to sacrifice himself or herself in such -effort. 

•Muslims should not limit themselves to conventional 9«e«±XXa weapons , 

"shotguns, handguns, gasoline bombs, but other weapons whxch can be 
lized with a relatively no noise factor, e.g., daggers, razors, short 
id steel clubs, etc. With a relatively no-noise factor involved xn 
attack? the Servant or Servants of Allah can vacate the locatxon/scene 
the encounter unnoticed or inconspicuous. 

• Because U.S. foreign policies are made by individuals ?« targets • 
. ov'fe? as hiah-ranking persons; although, any Amerxcan citizen can be 
'„2£! lowever all successful encounters must be later anonomously 
iounced an nublicized 5 wltrstatements left at the encounter messeges to 
°~ess (donlstic S foreign); etc. CAny Amerxcan can pargeted sxnce_ 
i. ,rican is innocent as long as U.S. forexgn polxcxes are to the ^ter 
A of the Islamic community.) By Allah's mercy, Muslxms wxll place -ear 
the hearts and minds of the kafir. ... 

Since Zionists are* inf luencial in U.S. policies, the targeting of 
,nist levies in America can be effective towards our cause if these 
itinued guerrilla strategies are made known to the U.S. publxc ana

Dear Buck* 

As you may know* I was a casualty of the limiting of the 
Advisory Committee on International Policies. They probably couldn't 
figure any way to justify a University Police Chief from 0hio( of all 
places) on an "International" commitee. 

Since I am \jBry interested in continuing involvment at a 
national level* I am reinterating *my request to be considered for same 
part of your newly-formed Terrorism Commitee. 

I have rnc I uded a document from the Director of our State 
Peace Officer Training Council in support of my request.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: 

Colonel Edward Bridgeman, Chief of Police at the University 
of Cincinnati , has been an invaluable resource to me and my 
former employer for years. As past Chairman and faculty member 
of the Criminal Justice Department, I witnessed Colonel Bridgeman 's 
early interest, and development of expertise in the area of terrorism 
and our society's response to it. 

From a curiosity to; the teaching of both popular seminars 
and outstanding quarter-'iength courses, Colonel Bridgeman con- 
tinued to build his competence in terrorism subject matter. His 
courses became some of the most popular and highly rated the 
Criminal Justice Department has ever offered. ' His seminars were 
attended by police officers and administrators throughout the 
Midwest. 

Since I became the Executive Director of the Ohio Peace 
Officer Training Council in September 1986, I have found that 
Chief Bridgeman has been the architect and instructor of the Ohio 
Peace Officer Training Academy's courses in Terrorism, again 
popular additions to our curriculum. * 

My questions concerning terrorism issues and trends have 
always been directed to Ed* Bridgeman because I know he has answers 
and insights. Ke should be the same invaluable resource to other 
agencies and programs that he has been to me over the years. I 
indeed hope his vast knowledge on this subject can be shared more 
widely. 

We intend to keep using Colonel Bridgeman as our major 
resource on terrorism. As a scholar, he will, no doubt, continue 
to expand his knowledge on the subject. 

Sincerely, 



sincerely, / *

Thank you for your kind letter of November 26, 1986, 
expressing interest in service to the newly formed IACP's 
Committeemen Terrorism. I have always been impressed with your 
law enforcement educational and professional experience, but 
unfortunately, as you know, your department does not meet the 
criteria for membership on the .full Committee on Terrorism. 

Enclosed you will find a copy of the proposed 
membership list for the newly formed Committee on Terrorism. 
This was submitted to Colonel Robert W. Landon, President of the 
IACP, on November 12, 1986. The interest exhibited by police 
officials, such as yourself, in this Committee has been extremely 
high. As you will note from the enclosed list, the Committee 
will have representation at senior levels from Federal, state, ^/\ 
local, arid international agencies, most with significant 
experience in counterterrorism and crisis management. 



Itri this 



Ed, I appreciate your interest in helping out wit „_ 
new Committee. I intend to recommend to the full Committee orf' 
Terrorism that you be considered as a candidate for membership on 
the Subcommittee on Terrorism Training. If you have any

"• goals, please write or call me.

in concert with the Division for Continuing Studies are proposing 
a course of study that will satisfy the Ohio State Highway Patrol 
curricular requirements and award participants course credit at

group of instructors with specific competencies to present 
material in their areas of expertise. During the course of our 
search for individuals who could instr uct in administrati ve law
